Sinossi

Taboo Evolution explores the ever-changing landscape of sexual taboos, revealing how these prohibitions have historically molded public discourse and shaped social norms. The book delves into the origins of these taboos, tracing them back to religious doctrines, legal codes, and philosophical thought, emphasizing that these aren't static rules but evolve with social, political, and technological changes. For example, the printing press had a profound impact on the dissemination of sexually explicit materials, further shaping the evolution of censorship.

 
This study uniquely bridges history, sociology, and media studies to give a comprehensive look at the evolution of sexual taboos in Western societies. It looks at how these restrictions are reinforced and challenged through literature, art, scientific research, and political activism.

 
The book begins by defining key terms such as taboo, sexuality, and censorship. It then examines specific case studies across different historical periods and cultural contexts, culminating in an assessment of the current state of sexual taboos in the digital age, considering the impact of the internet and social media.

    Our world, without question, is experiencing aberrational times. The life-altering realities of COVID-19 that I worked through as White House press secretary were just the start of it. What followed was a series of history-defining events. From the fall of Afghanistan to the nationwide crime wave, we've all endured painful images of death, destruction, and chaos. Meanwhile, radical teachings on gender and race have infiltrated our nation's schools, poisoning the minds of our children—all at a time when our country feels more divided than ever before. Along with these twenty-first century realities can come a feeling of despair and discouragement. Indeed, I hear it all the time as I crisscross the country: Americans feel disheartened and seek hope. 
     
     
     
    Taking a similar format to my New York Times bestselling book, For Such a Time as This, I analyze our domestic and international challenges through the lens of faith. Though we have lived through dark times, the storms we face have prompted many great leaders to rise to the moment and have left a yearning in the human heart for a Savior, Jesus Christ, who is walking alongside us every step of the way.

    Embark on a fascinating journey along Scotland's forgotten 'coffin roads'.
    'Coffin roads' along which bodies were carried for burial are a marked feature of the landscape of the Scottish Highlands and islands – many are now popular walking and cycling routes. This book journeys along eight coffin roads to discover and explore the distinctive traditions, beliefs and practices around dying, death and mourning in the communities which created and used them.
    The result is a fascinating snapshot into place and culture. After more than a century when death was very much a taboo subject, this book argues that aspects of the distinctive West Highland and Hebridean way of death and approach to dying and mourning may have something helpful and important to offer to us today.
    
    
    Routes covered in this book are:
    The Kilmartin Valley – the archetypal coffin road in this ritual landscape of the dead.
    The Street of the Dead on Iona – perhaps the best known coffin road in Scotland.
    Kilearnadil Graveyard, Jura – a perfect example of a Hebridean graveyard.
    The coffin road through Morvern to Keil Church, Lochaline - among the best defined and most evocative coffin roads today.
    The Green Isle, Loch Shiel, Ardnamurchan - the oldest continuously used burial place anywhere in Europe.
    The coffin road on Eigg – with its distinctive 'piper's cairn' where the coffin of Donald MacQuarrie, the 'Great Piper of Eigg', was rested.
    The coffin road from Traigh Losgaintir to Loch Stocinis on Harris - popular with walkers and taken as the title for a best-selling thriller by Peter May.
    The coffin road on Barra – A detailed study of burial practices on Barra in the early 1950s provides a fascinating record of Hebridean attitudes to dying, death and mourning.
